PREREQUISITES
- .esp Marked/Flagged as . ESL Install BEES if ONLY you're on SSE ver 1. 5. 97 & 1. 6. 659, without it you'll prolly have Black Face/Deformation into vanilla head
- SkyPatcher ,added Skypatcher conversion (.ini) for maximum compatibility (Credits: Innendo)
- (OPTIONAL) alternate Default Outfit for Illia - Fuse00's Melony Amor
Simply my (current) personal replacer for Illia to make her look more distinguished from other NPCs.
I have to be honest that personally I think illia is quite a forgettable NPC although she has her own side questline, yet still somehow for me her presence in the game is quite underwhelming even compared to Nazeem. So uh.. this is just my first attempt of my edit on her appearance with the wish to make her more fleshed out but of course as I always say everything around design is purely subjective to each's own.
This Replacer Utilizes High Poly Head-CotR with BNP Skin adaptation & 2k in textures mostly
if you're looking to change the hairstyles, you can probably just grab KS Hairdos non HDT Wigs or HDT-SMP Racemenu hair & wigs or any other favourite wigs mods to switch/swap to your liking anytime.
COMPATIBILITY
- This replacer WILL NOT be compatible with others Illia's replacer obviously & make sure this replacer is loaded last to be sure.
